Nike Basketball begins pushing for the postseason with the new Elite Series 2.0, complete with a superheroes theme for Kobe Bryant, LeBron James and Kevin Durant. Following the pattern set last year, each marquee athlete’s signature model gets souped up to another level through upgraded premium materials and design. The Kobe 8 System, LeBron X and the KD V will all feature Kevlar® aramid, carbon fiber, articulated foam and expressive colorways for lighter shoes that are still durable as ever.

Nike made sure Bron’s hairline was in rookie season form. As for the shoes, KD has the best design. I haven’t bought Nike in over a decade but with the KD playoffs and the Foam Barkley’s, that is changing soon

KDs are clean. Remind me of Lebron 8 Sprites. Kobes really don’t look much different then the Systems….but that’s not a bad thing. Lebrons look good. The pack seems like a winner. Now….what’s the price tag?
